There are several things you will need in order to use this feature.<\/p>\n<p>First and foremost, you\u2019ll need to be on the Windows Insider Beta channel, build 22000.282 or higher. Here\u2019s how you can switch between channels\u2014but beware, the beta channel isn\u2019t completely stable and we don\u2019t recommend using unstable builds of Windows on your primary PC.<\/p>\n<p>Second, your Windows 11 PC must have hardware virtualization enabled. Windows 11 essentially runs Android in a virtual machine, which is why this is necessary. You can check if your PC has virtualization enabled by going to the \u201cPerformance\u201d tab in the Task Manager. (You can press Ctrl+Shift+Esc to open the Task Manager.)<\/p>\n<p>If hardware virtualization isn\u2019t enabled, you will likely need to enable Intel VT-X in your computer\u2019s UEFI firmware (BIOS). If your system has an AMD chip instead, look for AMD-V in the UEFI firmware settings screen.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-764104\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/2021-10-25_16-28-16-e1635194023950.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Task Manager virtualization.\" width=\"500\" height=\"360\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Next, make sure you\u2019re on the latest version of the Microsoft Store. Open the Microsoft Store and update all the apps on the \u201cLibrary\u201d page. You need\u00a0Microsoft Store version 22110.1402.6.0.<\/p>\n<p>If all of those things check out, you\u2019re ready to proceed! If you installed some updates to get to this point, it\u2019s a good idea to reboot your PC before we go any further.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><em>How to Switch Between Dev and Beta Channels on Windows 11<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Install_Android_Apps_in_Windows_11\"><\/span>How to Install Android Apps in Windows 11<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The first thing to do is open the Microsoft Store.
